Power supply IC packs eight buck regulators
https://www.electronics-lab.com/power-supply-ic-packs-eight-buck-regulators/
Aimed at systems requiring multiple low-voltage supplies, Linear Technology’s LTC3374A can be configured to supply two to eight independent regulated outputs with 15 possible output-current configurations. Each of the eight synchronous 1-A buck converters is powered from an independent 2.25-V to 5.5-V input supply. Output voltage range is 0.8 V to VIN. by Susan Nordyk […]
How to Improve Buck Converter Light Load Efficiency with an LDO
https://www.electronics-lab.com/improve-buck-converter-light-load-efficiency-ldo/
By Michael Hartshorne @ digikey.com: Designing a DC/DC converter that only consumes micro amps of current at no load can be compared to fueling a muscle car with lighter fluid – you may get it to work, but it won’t be easy. High efficiency at full load currents is commonplace in most modern DC/DC converters; […]
Buck regulator accepts 3.0-V to 42-V input
https://www.electronics-lab.com/buck-regulator-accepts-3-0-v-42-v-input/
Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT8608, a 1.5A, 42V input synchronous step-down switching regulator. A unique synchronous rectification topology delivers 93% efficiency while switching at 2MHz enabling designers to avoid critical noise-sensitive frequency bands, such as AM radio, while using a very compact solution footprint. Burst Mode® operation keeps quiescent current under 2.5μA in no-load […]
Basic Switching Voltage Regulator Tutorial
https://www.electronics-lab.com/basic-switching-voltage-regulator-tutorial/
James Lewis @ baldengineer.com discuss about switching regulator types and uses. A switching voltage regulator is one of my favorite circuits. In school, they were the first circuits I built where I understood how transistors worked. In fact, they were the first circuit I saw an inductor being useful! Switching regulators are incredibly efficient when designed […]
LTC7813 – Low IQ, 60V Synchronous Boost+Buck Controller
https://www.electronics-lab.com/ltc7813-low-iq-60v-synchronous-boostbuck-controller/
Linear Technology Corporation introduces the LTC7813, a dual output (boost + buck), low quiescent current synchronous DC/DC controller. When cascaded, its independent step-up (boost) and step-down (buck) controllers regulate the output voltage from an input voltage that can be above, below, or equal to the output voltage, including during an automotive load dump or cold […]

How to control LM2596 buck-converter with microcontroller
https://www.electronics-lab.com/how-to-control-lm2596-buck-converter-with-microcontroller/
by hugatry @ hackvlog.com: Every now and then someone asks on different forums if there is an way to control cheap LM2596 modules with an Arduino or another microcontroller. I decided to demonstrate one solution that might be basic electronics for some, but still many don’t know about. Those buck converters will change the output voltage […]
